pump had been pulled out of the well and was lying in the driveway.
At the pump, all three wires seemed to be attached securely, so Tiger started walking along the length of the pipe. About 10 or 15 feet from the top, he found a place on the pump wire that looked burnt, and closer inspection revealed that one of the wires was burned all the way through.
When the pump in the bottom of the well comes on, it imparts a fair amount of torque to the well pipe hanging from the pitless adapter, and, hopefully, a nylon rope. And, with no spacers on the well pipe, the wire had apparently rubbed against the well casing enough that it eventually rubbed off the insulation and shorted out.
Clyde and Tiger replaced the wire from the pump to the top of the standpipe and put spacers on the well pipe that keep the pipe from hitting the casing and hold the pump wire securely in place. They dropped the pump back in the well, secured the pitless adapter, and reconnected the wires. Problem solved. I wanted to go in the house and flush the toilet just for fun.
And I had been worried about how many days we were going to be without water. But, with a name like Clyde Pullen, I should have known I had nothing to worry about.
